Eric Bledsoe (bruised shin) is questionable for Tuesday's game vs. the Kings after colliding with P.J. Tucker during practice.

His absence would leave a giant hole in lineups for fantasy owners, not to mention the Suns, who would be without their leader in points per game (20.4) and assists (6.8). Check back closer to tip-off for an update on his status -- if he sits out, Goran Dragic and Gerald Green would be poised for a big night.

Kevin Love returned from a 22-game absence and started at center, finishing with 18 points, seven boards, four assists, two blocks and four 3-pointers in 25 minutes of Monday's win over the Bucks.

Nice! If you were recently able to pick him up, congratulations are in order, as he originally wasn't expected back until March 23. And the Cavaliers need him with Larry Nance's hamstring injury, as well as Tristan Thompson's ankle injury. Love's minutes may be iffy for the next few games, but he made the most of them tonight.

Draymond Green appeared to tweak his groin and went to the locker room in the second quarter of Monday's game against the Spurs.

Green came up gimpy and was holding his groin area before departing, so his return to action tonight is in doubt. David West, Kevon Looney and Jordan Bell will all get a boost if Green's going to miss time with the injury. Green missed all four of his shots and had zero points and three rebounds before departing.

LeBron James hit 16-of-29 shots and three 3-pointers for 40 points, 12 rebounds, 10 assists, two steals and a block in 40 minutes of Monday's 124-117 win over the Bucks.

This was LeBron's 71st triple-double of his career, 15th of the season, his second straight triple-double, and his third in his last four games. The Cavs have won three of their last four and LeBron is averaging 32 points, 12.2 rebounds, 9.2 assists, 1.8 steals, 1.8 blocks and 1.8 3-pointers over his last five, and the Cavs now sit as the No. 3 seed in the East, a 1/2 game ahead of the Pacers. The Cavs want home-court advantage in the first round of the playoffs, so LeBron, who is the No. 6 player in fantasy, should continue to play in most games down the stretch in order to keep up with the Jones'.

Willy Hernangomez scored a season-high 17 points vs. the 76ers on Monday, hitting 6-of-11 from the field and 4-of-6 from the line with three rebounds, two steals and one block in 20 minutes.

He scored all 17 of his points in the first half before disappearing in the second. Not even a week ago, Hernangomez was blasted by coach Steve Clifford for his lack of shooting and defense, but it looks like the second-year center is finally getting a chance to prove himself while Cody Zeller (knee) is out and coach Clifford finally had some nice things to say about him at the morning shootaround. He played 13 minutes in his previous game with nine points and six rebounds, so deep-league owners should monitor him in case his role continues to grow.

Darren Collison returned to the starting lineup on Monday and had 15 points, four rebounds, eight assists, a steal, a block and two 3-pointers in 33 minutes of a 110-100 win over the Lakers.

He's back and should be ready to roll the rest of the way for the playoff-bound Pacers. He was already playing pretty well off the bench for the Pacers, but now looks like a must-start player since he's starting again for Indy. Cory Joseph came off the bench for eight points, three assists and two steals, but loses some appeal now that Collison is starting again.

Myles Turner played through his sprained ankle on Monday and hit 9-of-15 shots and a 3-pointer for 21 points, seven rebounds, three assists and two blocks in 30 minutes of a 110-100 win over the Lakers.

He was iffy coming into this one, but we let you know he would be playing well before tonight's tip off, so hopefully you were able to get him into your lineup. He was out on Saturday and didn't do much on Thursday when he got injured, but has played very well in his last three healthy games played. Watch for news before deploying him on Wednesday against the Pelicans, but all signs point to him being good to go for that one.

Stanley Johnson will enter the starting lineup on Monday vs. the Kings in place of James Ennis.

The Pistons have lost seven out of their last eight games and Ennis has a combined nine points in his last three games. Johnson did have a nice stretch back in February, but he's been quiet even since. Most fantasy owners can use a wait-and-see approach here, but Reggie Bullock is the only wing you can trust in Detroit right now.

Ben Simmons posted his ninth triple-double of the season in Monday's 108-94 win over the Hornets, scoring 11 points (4-of-9 FGs, 3-of-4 FTs) with 15 assists and 12 rebounds.

His nine triple-doubles are the most by a 76er since Wilt Chamberlain posted 31 in 1967-68. Simmons also racked up three steals on the night and this was his fourth straight point-assist double-double, the longest streak by a rookie since Darren Collison in 2010. The 76ers are in sixth place in the East, have won three straight and have one of the easiest remaining schedules in the league. Life is good for Philly fans these days.

Joel Embiid scored 25 points and matched his career-high with 19 rebounds in Monday's 108-94 win over the Hornets.

The Process hit 10-of-17 shots and 4-of-6 free throws with two assists, four triples and four blocks, but he was a little careless with the ball as he racked up a career-high nine turnovers. He attempted six triples on the night which is what coach Brett Brown asked him to do recently, and he made his 100th career triple in this game which makes him one of 10 7-footers in the NBA with at least 100 treys over the past two seasons.

Of course he is. The Grizzlies just placed him on the inactive list with no warning, but this isn't the first time a tanking team has been shady this season. Andrew Harrison (wrist) will start alongside Dillon Brooks and is a solid streaming option and pickup for the week.

He was given a 4-to-6 week timetable after undergoing surgery on his broken left hand in early March, and March 30 would be around the 4-week mark. The fantasy playoffs will almost be over at that point, but if your league runs through April, Hart could have some low-end value because he was playing really well before the injury.
